As we drove towards the county town, many people stopped to buy melons, but it was far from enough to sell out the entire truckload.

Although An Xinrong agreed to work with Zhuang Yan to sell melons properly, she was still unwilling to deal with strangers.

Zhuang Yan ignored her and the two divided the work, one selling melons and the other collecting money.

According to the staff, Jiang Ning's group was the first to sell out.

Jiang Ning, as a film queen, has a wide reach and fans everywhere, making it incredibly easy for her to sell eggs. She even gives autographed eggs to fans, resulting in long queues at her egg stall, which she closes up before noon.

Next was Lu Yan. She and Ling Xuan didn't get along, so they simply sold their vegetables separately. One of them went to the town's vegetable market, while the other drove to the county town where there were more people.

The person who went to the county town was Lu Yan, because she heard that Zhuang Yan had also come to the county town.

The vegetables grown by the villagers were very fresh, picked early in the morning, but they were wilted because of the hot weather. Lu Yan saw that the vegetable vendors next to her had prepared a watering can to water the vegetables, so she made one for herself too.

Lu Yan was very adept at selling vegetables. She wrote the prices on a sign, stood up, and called out to the crowd. Before long, she attracted a lot of people.

A pretty face is an advantage; who doesn't like watching a beautiful woman sell vegetables? Plus, the show itself attracted a lot of viewers, so many people recognized her and bought vegetables from her stall.

The scale the production team prepared for Lu Yan was not an electronic scale but a plate scale. The viewers in the live broadcast room were stunned as they watched Lu Yan skillfully weigh the vegetables and calculate the money.

[Does Lu Yan even know how to use a scale? What other surprises does she have that I don't know about?]

Could it be that he secretly practiced with the villagers behind our backs?

[Can anyone tell me why Lu Yan, a rich heiress, would do these things? I've seen online that some rich kids can't even tell the difference between vegetables.]

[Lu Yan doesn't seem to be a first-timer at selling vegetables; her skill level far surpasses that of the other guests, with only Zhuang Yan able to match her.]

[It's really strange. Zhuang Yan and Lu Yan are both from wealthy families, and they handle farm work and selling vegetables with ease. On the other hand, Fang Chen always brings up his rural background, but he can't do anything right. I thought today was his day, but selling eggs relied entirely on Jiang Ning, and he even broke a few eggs.]

Fang Chen has three older sisters; his family probably favors boys over girls.

After selling her vegetables, Lu Yan immediately inquired about Zhuang Yan's whereabouts, as selling melons was not as profitable as selling vegetables.

This year's watermelon harvest was so abundant that many watermelon farmers couldn't sell their produce, and it rotted in the fields. Zhuang Yan's ability to sell half of his watermelons in such a short time is already quite remarkable.

An Xinrong looked on anxiously: "When will they sell out? It's so hot..."

The two stood in the shade, both sweating profusely, and the small fans in their hands were of no use at all.

Zhuang Yan looked at An Xinrong's smudged makeup and said, "If you feel too tired, find a milk tea shop to rest for a while."

Normally, An Xinrong would have gone to rest without Zhuang Yan saying anything, but today, she wanted to prove herself.

"No." An Xinrong snorted coldly. "Don't misunderstand, I don't want to accompany you. It's because it's the program's rule that we can only rest after selling all the melons. Besides, without me as your human signboard, you definitely won't be able to sell a single one."

Seeing her haughty expression, Zhuang Yan didn't argue, but just smiled and replied perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, it's a good thing you're here, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to sell a single watermelon today. I was able to sell so many watermelons and earn so much money, all thanks to you."

An Xinrong's face is hot; it must be because of the hot weather and sun exposure!

At noon, the staff reminded the two to go eat.

Zhuang Yan told An Xinrong to go eat first and just pack some for him to bring back.

An Xinrong was hungry, so she didn't refuse. Not long after she left, Zhuang Yan saw Lu Yan.

How did you get here?

Lu Yan said indifferently, "Selling vegetables."

Where's your food?

"Sold out."

Zhuang Yan glanced at her enviously, then turned to look at his cart full of melons, wondering when he would be able to sell them all.

"Then why aren't you going back?"

Lu Yan sneered. Instead of going up to him as usual, she walked around the watermelon cart, patted the watermelons inside, and fiddled with the loudspeaker.

"You really like flowers?"

She asked the same question again. When Zhuang Yan received the text message that morning, he could tell from those few words that Lu Yan was being sarcastic. Clearly, she was holding a grudge about Jiang Ning sending him flowers last night.

"good……"

Lu Yan sneered twice more, then took out a card from her pocket and handed it to Zhuang Yan: "Since you like flowers so much, I'll give you one too."

"What do you mean?" Zhuang Yan looked down and saw that it was clearly a black card. Where did the money come from?

Lu Yan leaned forward, pinched the black card between her fingers, and poked it into Zhuang Yan's chest, saying as she did so, "This is called having money to spend!"

Isn't her "flower" better than the one Jiang Ning sent? It's also more practical, and I believe no one would dislike it.

But Zhuang Yan stepped back and dodged the card in her hand: "I don't want it."

Lu Yan suppressed her cold smile and met Zhuang Yan's serious expression, knowing that he really didn't want it.

She couldn't help but wonder if Zhuang Yan, with his meticulous nature, might think she wanted to support him with her money.

If she could really support him with her wallet, she wouldn't have had to go to such lengths to seduce him. It wasn't something she was good at anyway. She had practiced for a long time, done a lot of research and mental preparation before she finally took that step. Unfortunately, it was useless on Zhuang Yan, that clueless straight man.

Seeing that Lu Yan had finally taken the black card, Zhuang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and whispered a reminder to her: "Don't forget that there is a photographer following you. Be careful what you say and do."
